Problem using pow(2,floor(log2(N)))

In the FIBEASY question

I have used a section of code for calculating the nearest number which can be expressed as 2^k, where k is some number.

First approach by using : floor(log2(N))

Secod approach by using :

    ll pos = 0 ;
	while (N >>= 1) ++pos;

N has a limit of 10^18;

First approach : CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone
This fails in the second subtask.

Using bitwise shift gives an AC.

Any ideas why the first method fails…?

See this post, and the one linked from it.

I used log2((long double) N ) and it worked…But i cant figure out why?
